checking ng tire pressure...

[gudboy]

gaano kadalas ang pag check niyo ng tire pressure..
also gaano kadalas pa camber>?

yung balancing kung nanginginig lang gulong at high speed diba?

It's a good idea to check tire pressures at least once every month.

It's also a good idea to check tire pressures just before going on an extended drive. Make sure you stay within manufacturers specifications, especially for daily drivers.

Check your tire pressures when cold, meaning check it before you move your car.

It's definitely a good idea to keep a tire pressure gauge in your car handy.

Camber corrections should be made if you notice uneven wear on your tires. It should also be a part of things that need to be checked when you get an alignment done.

Steering wheel shake at high speeds could be attributed to a number of factors, including incorrect tire pressure (and maybe warped rotors, if the wheel shake is felt during braking). Make sure your tires are properly inflated. If the shake is still there, have your wheel rebalanced.

Good luck!

even better if you check every week... and don't forget to check the spare tire, at least once a month

I tried to check my tire pressure with a gauge at least once a month.

[1D4LV]

i do check my tire pressure once a week.

Bago umalis ng bahay tinitingnan ko muna gulong. Kung mukhang kulang sa pressure, punta ako agad sa pinakamalapit na gas station para pa-inflate. Pagdating ko sa office, check ko ulit tire pressure kung tama. Kapag kulang ulit, malamang may butas at napako ang gulong mo. Pa-vulvanize ang next step. Tip lang po.

As for me, i check every other week (or if i notice, see, or feel something wrong). Spare tire once a month.

When you put air, make sure it's done when the tires are cold.

[palerider47]

almost everytime when filling up a gasoline, i put air for my tire. So that's once a week.

Our Tires are the one's touching the road, it's the tires that carries your car and you yourself. Kaya, Before driving just a glimpse to your 4 tires. It's your life. Take Care of your car and the car will take care of you. And one most important to take care is your tires.

IMHO lang po.

i check it at least once a month.
double check if i have to travel farther than my usual route.

nitrogen ang pinakarga ko, pag long driving, kasi hindi gaanong mainit yong tire kahit tanghaling tapat. At yong spare, last dec pinalagyan ko up to 45, na-tsek last week, 40 psi pa.

redhorse, curious lang. saan ka nagpapalagay ng nitrogen? i heard nga na its better than ordinary compressed air...and how much it costs?

isa pa....is it safe to put in nitrogen sa tires maski naka tubeless?

its better pag once a week. 30 psi ang karga ko ng hangin, pag umabot na ng 28psi, karga ulit.

I learned that tire pressure is driver dependent. There is really no ideal pressure, but most would put their pressures between 28-35 psi. If you want better handling, increase the pressure. For better traction, decrease the pressure I also check the pressures once a week

I dont think there is any benefit in using nitrogen vs. compressed air. Nitrogen, like all gases, follows the ideal gas law (which states that temperature and pressure are directly proportional). So, if nitrogen gets hot, it will expand! Since it has about the same specific heat as oxygen, it will get as hot!

Air is about 80% nitrogen in any case.

Filling your tires (and finding a place to fill it up at) with nitrogen is also a bit inconvenient, IMO.

I say, stick with compressed air.

tiger,

tubeless lahat ng tires ko. costs -- about P100 per tire. But someone told me, the tank itself costs less than P200 and can fill up 4 tires. Kaya lang, wala naman akong kakilalang aircon shop, and to buy those hoses, medyo di yata economical, since I only fill it up once a year.

e46,

it is inconvenient talaga, isa lang kasi ang shop na alam ko. Pero, me and my neighbor, been doing it three years and never have had a tire pressure loss on the road. Actually, to convince myself I put a test and control unit, both are spares (not used even once for the entire year) one is filled with nitro, the other, compressed air. The former read 40 the latter nasa 20 na lang, both were initially filled at 45.

But then again, this does not translate, na hindi i-check ang tire pressure at least once a week, including spare tire.

peace.

[gjtech]

i check my tire pressure once every 2 weeks.

[mbt]

does anyone know where i can get a good, accurate, and durable tire gauge?

[zapped_17]

Mas ok daw ba talaga Nitro than O2?sabi ng frend ko mas maganda daw ride pag naka nitro, less tagtag at mag maganda para sa gulong kesa sa usual oxygen? 22o ba un?

[notEworthy27]

di kaya sumabog yun at high temp.?
